Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2697598, member: 8215"] That's the NRL though isn't it? Factions, in-fighting, and the left hand not knowing that the right is doing? That, and never admitting mistakes. Blair's actions still wouldn't be a shoulder charge under the new rules. But because the MRC has been soft on anyone hitting Thurston (or anyone really) late, they couldn't charge Blair for a late shot without looking inconsistent. And you can't charge someone for a head clash. And since it wasn't a high shot, they saw that one arm was tucked in and charged him under the SC rules. Basically, they thought what he did was dangerous, and just found whatever charge they could to do so. If they'd just sucked it up early, admit that they've let late shots fester too much and reign it in, we wouldn't be in this stupid situation. I would have been satisfied with him being charged with a "contrary conduct" or something, as it was a tad late. [/QUOTE]
